Spare Tire mount

[floridarick]

I just did a 2.5" Rough Country lift with 20" x 12" wheels & 35" x 12.5" MT Tires on my 2018 JLU. The 5th wheel is on
back order & wont be here until next week. Dose anyone know what I need to mount it on the back? I've heard all I need is a 1/2" spacer on factory mount and also herd i will need something like Rough Country's relocation bracket.....

If you dont have the steel bumper group 35" tire might rub on the back bumper with no bracket.

Yeah just have the standard Sahara plastic bumper. Thanks for the help.....

I have the Sahara (2.5" lift) and just put 34's on it yesterday. The spare did not fit (hit the bumper). I got the Smittybilt tire relocation bracket (#7721) and it fit perfect. It raises the tire 1.5" and pushes it out 1.5". Easy install too! No doubt the Rough Country version would work just as well but the SB was available local. Only issue I'm having is my parksense beeps constantly.

Thanks for the reply. Deff sounds like I need a relocation bracket. Sorry to hear about the parksense. Luckily I don't have that option......
